A connecting structure, standard sections, a channel having the standard sections, and an irrigation system are provided. The standard sections each comprise a bottom plate and side plates fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom plate; the three plates form a standard section body in a groove structure. Two ends of the standard section are respectively provided with a male buckle and a female buckle, or the two ends of the standard section are both provided with the male buckle or the female buckle. The male buckle comprises a male buckle connection plate. The female buckle comprises a female buckle connection plate having a U-shaped groove. Moreover, the thickness of the male buckle connection plate matches the width of the U-shaped groove, in order to prevent the male buckle connection plate from coming out of the U-shaped groove of the female buckle connection plate after being inserted therein.

A trench drain defining a channel and having an accessory rib allowing the convenient attachment of accessories to the sides of a drain in order to facilitate the installation of a trench drain, place drain outlets at any convenient places along the trench drain, and to create right angle joints between two trench drains.

A system for flood water or water flow mitigation includes at least one aqueduct or drain having a first section linking a river, lake, reservoir, water retention pond or dam to another section linked to another lake, reservoir, storage tank or sea, characterized in that the first section are positioned at higher than the other section, and the aqueducts or drains are configured to be placed above ground level or extend upward from sides of river or existing drain, such that invert levels of the aqueducts or drains are higher than sea levels during high tide flooding or sea level increases.

An asymmetric debris-flow discharge channel is provided. The debris-flow discharge channel has a main drainage channel for discharging a debris flow and an auxiliary channel provided outside of the main drainage channel. The side walls of the auxiliary channel are integrated with the side walls of the main drainage channel or provided outside of the side walls of the main drainage channel. The debris-flow discharge channel also has a break section integrated into a side wall of the auxiliary channel. The top width of the break section is equal to the top width of the auxiliary channel A method for designing and building the asymmetric debris-flow discharge channel is also provided, which provides a lower initial cost, higher safety performance, and a lower maintenance cost at the operating stage.

System and means soil stabilization and moisture control for building foundations including methods and systems for stabilization moisture in a site for building foundation by applying soil moisture stabilization material in various forms, a preferred stabilization material being a mixture of aluminosilicate Pozzolan mineral and granular material such as sand.

This invention is directed to a hydrocyclone that will separate particles from a liquid stream, such as from an irrigation water stream for use in drip irrigation. The invented hydrocyclone has an inlet, a separation section, a clean liquid outlet, and a slurry outlet, wherein the separation section has a vortex and a cone, and wherein the vortex length is more than three times longer than the cone length, and the cone has an angle of about 45 degrees. The invented hydrocyclone also has a vortex diameter to vortex length ratio of between about 0.8 and about 1.2, and a cone length to vortex length ratio of between about 0.28 and about 0.35. The invented hydrocylone may be of unitary construction. When in use, the invented hydrocyclone may create a clean water stream having at least 78% fewer particles than the original liquid stream.

A method of manufacturing a water detention chamber by providing a polymer melt, injecting a CO2 blowing agent into the polymer melt, and injecting the polymer melt and CO2 blowing agent blend into a mold cavity. The mold cavity defines an arch-shaped corrugated chamber having upstanding ribs and a flange having an upper surface and a lower surface. The flange has one or more protrusions, preferably elongated members, at the first end of the chamber. The flange also has one or more mating apertures or cavities at the opposite end from the protrusions.

A method for managing the flow of water beneath a ground surface uses modules. Assemblies of such modules are disclosed. The modules include supports and a deck portion, and the supports are spaced apart and form multiple channels with a main section of the deck portion. The deck portion also includes at least one section extending from a main section.
